Dr Whiting on Diets - Why they Fail

Dieting seems to be a national past time! At any given time you have millions of people who are trying to succeed at weight loss, yet the vast majority of these people ultimately fail, either quitting or succeeding, only to gain all the lost weight back again and usually some additional pounds. Low calorie diets, touted by the medical profession and dieticians can work for many people, but we all don't respond to the same diet in the same way. Low carbohydrate diets tend to work much better for some than simply following a low calorie diet. If your body produces excess insulin, a low carbohydrate diet is going to have a much greater change of working than a low calorie program. Weight loss is not always easy, but it can be made easier once you understand how your body handles food. You can take our Weight Management test to determine if your body is more inclined to respond to a low calorie program and a low carbohydrate diet. Dieting will becomes easier and faster when you are on the program that bests matches your body chemistry. If you are under excessive amounts of stress, cortisol, a hormone from the adrenal glands, is produced in excess. Excess cortisol is one major cause for both weight gain and difficulty with weight loss. Cortisol can be controlled in the body by properly nourishing the adrenal glands so that they are not in a state of exhaustion. Cortisol excess causes weight gain primarily around the mid-section of the body and is easily recognized as one of the many causes of obesity.
